Ever wonder what it takes to build one of the most iconic offshore kayak fishing tournaments from scratch? In this episode, Joe Hector takes us deep into his personal story — from grinding through college on ramen noodles and vodka to quitting his job and going all-in on his dream.
Now, the Extreme Kayak Fishing Tournament draws over 100 serious anglers to the beach, stacked with big sponsors like Jersey Mike’s and chiropractic tents, and it’s become a cornerstone of the sport in South Florida.
🎣 Joe shares wild moments like:
The monster swordfish landed from a kayak using a Johnny Jig
What it really takes to organize an event of this scale
The behind-the-scenes grind of gaining sponsors, ensuring safety, and innovating every year
What’s next for EKFT — and why it’s more than just a fishing tournament
If you’re into fishing, passion-fueled hustle, or stories about turning vision into reality, this episode is a must-listen. Joe doesn’t just run a tournament — he’s built a movement.
